Inc Republican party seems to be pre-.
pairing itself to keep the Repnblican
majority in the United States Senate. NV
claiming the fraudulent character Of the
Democratic majority in the New Jerseyaud

ocratic senators. The Republican Senate is
invited to go back of the election by the
state to inquire how it was made, and how
the Democratic majority in the legislature
had been obtained. The United States
Senate's habit has been to take senators in
who came with the proper credentials and to
refuse TO give credence to allegations of the
purchase or other fraudulent acduirempnt
OF their seats. 1t is notorious that MANY
senators get their seats in dishoDorable
ways and from the day when Simon
